CHIROPRACTIC TECHNIQUES

We provide many different techniques to meet every bodies specific needs

cRANIAL SACRAL

Are you looking for a way to heal your body naturally & gently, maybe you are afraid of what you have heard about Chiropractic or don’t like the idea of being cracked? Then cranial sacral might be just what you need. 

Every chiropractor that you go to will have a different approach and technique. It is an art form, as well as a philosophy and science. In our office, we employ gentle approaches to activate the deep healing potential inside each human being, which has sustained itself and kept it, vibrant and alive since it was two cells. 

Cranial sacral is a useful treatment for all ages & all conditions. Cranial sacral is a word that is popular in the massage industry today although its roots are in osteopathic medicine. Dr. Jen Wilhelm studied with a lineage of doctors that studied with Dr. Rolland Becker, DO.

It may seem as though the most gentle, touch and patience is being applied during this treatment, because it is. There is a depth in the body that is being accessed so that the flow this real spinal fluid can be restarted’s potential. Most people explain that it just feels relaxing and calming and they feel very nourished. 

Cranial sacral treatment is generally given in all sessions, although depending on the condition, sometimes longer sessions are required. Cranial sacral is almost always employed whenever there’s been any sort of car accident, concussion or fall. Often times, these incidents will attribute to problems with balance, cognition mood changes and often times chronic tension and pain. Many times, concussions can lead to chronic issues that are seemingly unrelated years down the line. Cranial sacral can unwind these old injuries, and help the body restore its healing ability from the depths of its own nervous system.

When Dr . Jen Wilhelm treats, newborns and infants, she always uses the cranial sacral practice. Imagine using the lightest pressure on a very ripe tomato. Every single inch of your skin has over 100,000 receptors, so this very light touch stimulates the nervous system in a very profound way. Plus a newborn has very soft bones. Their tissues are very receptive. Just one cranial sacral treatment for a newborn can help with development, breast-feeding and proper digestion.

 

TRADITIONAL CHIROPRACTIC ADJUSTMENTS

It is my experience that Chiropractic can feel good, will feel safe, and the adjustment can be given from a place of honor & finesse I do perform the traditional chiropractic adjustments. You may hear a little click or pop or crack, this is actually just gas releasing in your joint. This is tension releasing in your physiology. This is pressure releasing. Very much like opening up a pop can. The chiropractic adjustment feels great and you will have a release of pressure, tension and pain in the next 24 to 48 hours.

DROP TABLE

A chiropractic drop table adjustment is a type of chiropractic adjustment that is performed using a special table that has a drop section. The patient lies on the table with the area of the spine that needs to be adjusted over the drop section. The chiropractor then applies a gentle force to the area of the spine, and the drop section of the table drops, providing a sudden thrust that helps to realign the spine.

Drop table adjustments are a safe and effective way to treat a variety of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain. They are also a good option for people who are sensitive to pain or who have difficulty with traditional chiropractic adjustments.

Here are some of the benefits of using a drop table adjustment:

  • It is a gentle and effective way to adjust the spine.
  • It is safe for people of all ages.
  • It can help to reduce pain and improve range of motion.
  • It can help to improve overall health and well-being.

ACTIVATOR

A chiropractic activator is a hand-held, spring-loaded instrument that is used to deliver a low-force impulse to the spine. It is used by chiropractors to treat a variety of conditions, including back pain, neck pain, headaches, and joint pain.

The activator is a safe and effective way to adjust the spine. It is gentle enough to be used on children and the elderly, and it is less likely to cause pain than traditional chiropractic adjustments.

The activator works by using a controlled force to deliver a quick, short impulse to the spine. This impulse helps to restore the normal alignment of the spine and reduce pain.

The activator is a valuable tool for chiropractors. It is a safe and effective way to treat a variety of conditions, and it can help patients to get relief from pain and improve their overall health.

Here are some of the benefits of using a chiropractic activator:

  • It is a gentle and effective way to adjust the spine.
  • It is safe for people of all ages.
  • It can help to reduce pain and improve range of motion.
  • It can help to improve overall health and well-being.

NASAL SPECIFIC

Are you tired of constantly battling sinus congestion and allergies? Do you feel like you’ve tried every medication and treatment option out there with little to no relief? Look no further than Gold Beach Chiropractic’s Nasal Specific Technique. This revolutionary treatment offers a non-invasive, drug-free solution to sinus congestion and allergies. By targeting the root cause of your symptoms, rather than just masking them with medication, Nasal Specific Technique provides long-lasting relief and improved overall health. 

Nasal Specific Technique is a non-invasive, drug-free treatment that targets the root cause of sinus congestion and allergies. It works by realigning the bones in the skull, specifically the bones of the nasal passages. When these bones are misaligned, it can cause the nasal passages to become blocked, leading to congestion and other symptoms.

During a Nasal Specific Technique session, the chiropractor will use gentle pressure to realign the bones in the skull. This is done using a small balloon that is inserted into the nasal passages. The balloon is then inflated, which helps to realign the bones and improve the flow of air through the nasal passages. The process is painless and typically takes less than 30 minutes to complete.

With the help of our skilled chiropractors, you can finally say goodbye to the constant discomfort and frustration of sinus issues. Don’t let allergies and congestion control your life any longer – book your appointment for Nasal Specific Technique at Gold Beach Chiropractic today.

FREQUENCY SPECIFIC MICROCURRENT

FSM was developed by Dr. Carolyn McMakin in 1995 using frequencies passed on from an osteopath in Canada who had a practice that came with a machine made in the 1920’s. Dr. McMakin developed protocols for the treatment of myofascial pain in 1996 and presented her clinical data at the American Back Society national meeting in December 1997. In 1998, she published the paper on the “Treatment of chronic resistant myofascial pain in the head, neck, and face” in Topics in Clinical Chiropractic. In addition to other published FSM paper.

 

Frequency Specific Microcurrent or FSM was developed in 1995 as a way of treating muscle and nerve pain by using frequencies found on a list that came with a medical device developed in 1922 and applying them with a two-channel microcurrent device.

Medical and osteopathic physicians in the US and the UK began experimenting with electrical therapies and frequencies in the late 1800’s. By 1922 there were thousands of physicians using frequency devices to treat a great number of conditions. The research and methods were recorded in books and journals such a Electromedical Digest and physicians shared their research, results and findings at meetings of groups such as the Pathometric and Electromedical Societies.
